When I run this code inside the python IDLE program, it works fine. I've tried everything and hope seems to be lost. Is there any other way for users to input their own key bind, like what I'm trying to do here? If there is any other alternative, I would gladly go to that. When I run through the console, I get the error

    raise ValueError('Can only normalize non-empty string names. Unexpected '  repr(name))
ValueError: Can only normalize non-empty string names. Unexpected ''

I'm completely lost and don't know how to fix this. Does anyone have a clue of what the problem even means?

CodePudding user response：

Yea, I understand, but when I do that it sets the binds to this button. I'm trying to have the user input their own binds to run it.

a = input('\nPlease enter keybind[ANTIFREEZE]: \n')

I'm wanting them to input their own hotkey to run this command

 if keyboard.is_pressed(a):
            pyautogui.click(afreezePOS)
            Apause
            pyautogui.mouseDown(button='left')
            Apause
            pyautogui.moveTo(pos)
            Apause
            pyautogui.mouseUp(button='left')
            Apause
            print('[ANTI] was pressed. \n')

CodePudding user response：

i think the problem is that you use keybaord.is_pressed(a) while a is a variable for an input.

#if keyboard.is_pressed(a):
if keyboard.is_pressed('a'): #it should be like this
            pyautogui.click(afreezePOS)
            Apause
            pyautogui.mouseDown(button='left')
            Apause
            pyautogui.moveTo(pos)
            Apause
            pyautogui.mouseUp(button='left')
            Apause

you should do the same for b and c
